Start-Up City: An Entrepreneurial Economy for Middle Class New York
This conference will focus on the ideas outlined in Manhattan Borough President Scott M. Stringer's recently released "Start-Up City: Growing New York City's Entrepreneurial Economy for All." We will bring together thought leaders, entrepreneurs, and NYC's mayoral candidates to discuss major barriers to the growth of our innovation economy- like the talent gap, poor internet connectivity, and bureaucratic red tape- as well as how technology is fueling our City's diverse economy.
